When Rhett Myron recovered, the man
who had killed her father, and who was
later the best friend she ever knew, was

the generous sum Of $4,000. He also left
a letter giving all the particulars of her
fathers death.

These, he admits, are the most important
points to know, since without them il is
utterly impossible to pronounce any indie
pendent judgment on the cipher. He
quotes, however, from letter in which
Mn Donnelly affirms, in the most posi-
tive and unequivical way everything
is conducted according to fixed and invar-
liable rules of microscopic accuracy. DON
nelly evidently has made the issue a very
definite one. II such rules existed, the CT
pher is reality and the authorship of the
plays settled. And great deal more is
true, for the cipher narrative contains q
whole history of Shakespeare and his rela.
tion to the plays, and of the time in which
he lived. The whole thing reads like q
novel written in vigorous Elizabethian Eug-
glish. Here is passage of it describing
Elizabeth's treatment of Hayward, author
of the life of Henry ":
''Her Grace was In fearful passion, and
rising up, struck YOUR poor friend with the

wretch took to his heels, but the ill-tem-

fever he had had. His joints gave way

THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL.
Reminisces ces of the Attempt of the Re-
pUblicans to Drive President john
son From Office.
TCourier.J Journal.

ICourier-Journa
WASHINGTON, August 25.-[SpeeiaL IAN
interesting episode is related by gentle
man here in relation to the impeachment
of Andrew Johnson. On the evening after
the resolutions of impeachment of the
President were passed by the House, Hon.
VIM. E. Niblack, Hon. NJ. G. Kerr and
Judge Marshall, of Illinois, possibly with
several other Democrats, went to Senator
Hendricks and requested him to go with
them to see President Johnson and learn
what course he proposed to pursue. Gov.
Hendricks declined to go on the grounds,
that he would be one of the judges in the
case, and it would be manifestly i'm
proper for him to advise with the
defendant at the bar. These gentlemen
then called on Mr.. johnson and asked him
what he was going to dc. He replied that
he did not think that he would do any
thing; that he had administered the laws
according to the Constitution, and as far
rs he was concerned he would Just as
leave Quit the White House as not, bat
that his daughters, Mrs. Slower aud Mrs.
Patterson, thought that it would be hu.
initiating to leaveWsshingtoni in that wsv.
He at fret refused 10 employ any counsel,
ana seemed determined to let the case go
by default. II Is stated that Secretary
Seward of his own volition employed
Eyarts to defend the President. Some Of
the friends OF johnson went to see Jerry
Black, and sought his professional SER
vices to defend the President, but Mr..
johnson had given Mr.. Black such deep
offense in refusing to interfere in behalf of
some of his (Black's) clients that he refus-
ed to give his services in defense of the
the President against the Radical majority
which then was doing It's best TO destroy
the remaining vestiges OF constitutional
government. The gentleman who relates
these particulars was in Washington at the
time the vote on impeachment was taken,
and received these facts from participants
In the memorable events. He describes the
scenes on the avenue as exceeding anything
in popular excitement he has ever witness
ed, and remembers seeing Senator Hender-
son, who WIS chairman of the convention
that nominated Blaine, getting ont
of his carriage Just after coming
from the Senate, where he had voted
against the impeachment. There was q
big mob of negroes on the street, and they
shouted, "Hang him, hang himl" at the
Senator, and it was only because of the lack
OF leader that Her derson escaped being
hung to a lsmp-post. The gentleman adds
TO this "reminiscences that at the time OF the
impeachment the Forty second Regulars
were camped back of the White House.
Col. Shea, Of Lexington, Ind, was q cap
tain of the regiment, aud was familiar
with the sentiment OF the regiment and
says thai they had determined that If there
was auy attempt to GUST the President from
the White House forcibly they would have
organized and there would have been a
bloody battle right at the Presidential Msh-
sion; that il had been, in fact, resolved
upon to resist to bloodshed any attempt to
remove the President.

EDeEFIELD, s. O., Aug. 23.-[Specisl.l J.
The death of Col. w. r. Smith, which took
place in New York few weeks since, has
brought to light a very remarkable Incl
dent. Miss Rhett Myron, the principal fig
uTe in the drama, is q personal friend of
your correspondent, and from her the fol-
lowing facts have been obtained, with per-
mission for their publication
Hayne Myron, the father of this young
lady, was q planter in South Carolina.
His home was typical Southern home,
spacious and hospitable, surrounded by
broad acres, and faithful slaves His fam
lily consisted Of bis wife aud Rhett, who
was then little child, and the Idol OF her
father, as well as the pet of the plantation.
At the breaking out Of the war, in the fall
of 1861, Hayne Myron joined volunteer
Sonth Carolina regiment.
Before leaving home he had picture Of
bis little glrl pa nted in miniature aud in.
cased it in a locket that he placed next TO
his heart, saying, my darling this will be
papa's shield when he is in danger, and
his sunshine when he rests" aud with eyes
filed with tears he snothered the face and
sunny head of his child with farewell kis-
ses, and hurried away from his peaceful
home out TO the world of daugsr. Six
months latter, in a skirmish in Virginia,
Bayne Myron was killed, in a close com bat,
by a Federal officer. Only few woi ds
were sent to the old home TO tell the sad
story.

tried to speak, but his lips seemed sealed.
But later his manner changed to kindu ess
and cordialIty, aud she was treated M re
as an honored guest than q salaried
teacher. He insisted on paying her four
times the amount she charged for her ser
vices, and made her duties light. One
evening she was sitting in the family cir
Gle, telling of her past life down in South
Carolina, of the spacious house
with its twenty columns, of the
dusky slaves, who used to sit her on their
shoulders. calling her their "little queen"
as they carried her through the cotton
fields that looked like seas of snow foam.
For the first time she spoke of their father,
how handsome and sad he looked as he
went away on that..dreadful last day; how
he took her picture with him, and told all
be said. She states that she was forced to
stop in the midst of her words for Col

Superintendent Coon, of the Railway Mail
Service IN the City.
Mr.. LATE Coon, of Toledo, Superintend-
ent Of the railway mail service for the
Northern Ohio district, was at the Bates
House last night. Mr.. Coon is a reliable
Democrat.
"A Sentinel reporter asked Mr. Coon as to
the condition of the mail service in his dis
trict, and he said: II don't think it was
ever in better shape, and ! would say
emphatically that the very best men L
have are Democrats who have just entered
the service. l cannot tell why, bat the
new clerks seem to take more interest in
the work than any of the old experienced
men,"
"How many Democrats are there in the
service now?"
"In my district there are about 60 per
cent. of the entire number, while through
out the entire division there are still
more"
"Will Frank Hurd again be candidate
for Congress in your district"
Il had a talk with the great free-trader
the other day and he said he was going to
try it again. rather hope he will not,
though, because with a compromise candi-
date the district is 1000 democratic, aud
&r. Eurd has so many envious enemies in
the party that l fear he would be de-
feated."
Mr.. Coon left for his home late last
night.

PARKERsBURe, w. Va, August 20 This
entire congressional district lie excited over
the news OF the escepade in which ex-Con-
gTessman Eustace Gibson has jast figured.
Judge McGinnis, of the State Circuit Court,
and Mr.. Gibson have for years been on I'M
friendly terms. A few days ago while Glib
son was defending hopeless case in the
Circuit Court at Huntington, he took occa-
sion, so it Is said, to charge that the Judge
was open to bribery. and that there was no
use trying to get justice from either the
court or jury. In Huntington, Wednesday
afternoon, Gibson is alleged to have used
most foul and vile language concerning the
court, calling the Judge opprobrious cpl
thets, and making use of language highly
derogatory to his judicial partner. As
soon as the court reconvened Gibson was
arraigned upon a charge of contempt. The
court was crowded to overlooking. The
examination was conducted amid intense
excitement. After listening to the tessi-
moDy of a number of the most reputable
men, Judge McGinnis fined Mr. Gibson
$50 and ordered him sent to jail for ten
days. Yesterday efforts were made in his
behalf for a release from custody, but the
Judge refused 10 modify the sentence, aud
the ex-Congressman must fill out his term
in Jail.

CARELESS of price Apparently the more
active the European demand the more de-
pressed the foreign market news and tae
lighter English and Continental crop pros
poets are painted.
The feature of the week has been the
second collapse OF the San Froncisco deal
and the big tumble in prices there in spite
of the patched up place on the board. The
CLIQUE on the Pacific coast is said to be
hopelessly embarrassed, and their tremen-
deus line Of grain (about 20, O00 600 bushels)
is almost certain to be dumped. California
wheat is freely offered in Liverpool, but
the holders viii not sell to the manipd-
lators for fear they will not get their pay.
Prices hire are easy. but the fact that they
do Dots bresk shows that this California
do not has been pretty well discounted.
The bulls figure that during the past three
years spectators have lost 25c per an
Dum on $4,000 600 bushels of wheat, or sos
all told, making grand total OF $50, 000,-

be'ow the price OF production, they are
trying to guess when the inevitable re-
action will come around G8@69: cisa
wheat looks very cheap. At that price
milleTs and foreigners take hold literally,
and carriers and elevator men give the
market substantial support. The latter

quantity which still remains in the city

Wet weather in the Northwest makes
news from the harvest field uniavorable.
The greatest OF the reports received by COM
mission houses is to the effect that the crop
in Minnesota and Dakota is not panning
out as well as expected by some. four and

smaller, and that the grain is weedy and
dirty and hard to handle. The visible sup
ply is nearly 10, 600 600 bushels less than Q
year ago. and local stocks are now down
around 5000 600 bushels, These conditions
ought TO make speculation lively, as soon
as this season of summer dizziness is passed

trade has settled down to the belief that
the crop is damaged beyond repair by
